About AMRA American Mining Rights Association is a 501(c)(3), not-for-profit, tax-exempt Association based in Coulterville CA. AMRA was created by miners, hikers, hunters and public land users to preserve and maintain their rights as they pertain to the use of our public lands. We are not a hunting, gold, or fishing club, but rather an advocacy association focused on keeping our lands open for everyone to enjoy.
With the massive increase in regulations, attacks by various groups trying to deny the public access to their own lands, roads, claims, creeks, rivers and mineral prospects, the need to unite the mining and public land use community is essential and long overdue. In just under 5 years since AMRA was formed, we have become one of the largest public land use advocacy associations, and the largest small mining advocacy group in America. One of the biggest frustrations we've felt, and one of the primary reasons we formed AMRA was due to the lack of information about what is happening to our lands by new bills, laws, regulation and the like. We are changing that. We have a massive following on social media (Facebook: American Mining Rights) which keeps the public comprised as to what is happening in most of the states in our Union. We also tackle the government when it steps over its authority, either with litigation, meetings, letter writing campaigns, testimony in Congress......or whatever it takes to get the politicians to listen to the public which pays their salaries.
As miners and public land users, we must unite, all of us. We must address these attacks head on, legally, with a loud and strong voice. AMRA offers unlimited access to your entire family to nearly 100 of our gold claims for a small donation to the legal fund. We are successful because we are determined, resolute and because people like you recognize our government is taking away our rights......and they need someone to fight for them. That is AMRA.

Join us, support us and stay informed by us. Let us unite and preserve what we all enjoy for generations to come.
